About the convection features.

ge.com

Convection cooking uses a heating element to raise the temperature of the air inside the oven. Any oven temperature from 250°F to 450°F may be set, in increments of 5°F. A fan gently circulates this heated air throughout the oven, over and around the food, producing golden brown exteriors and rich, moist interiors.

Because the heated air is kept constantly moving, not permitting a layer of cooler air to develop around the food, some foods cook faster than in regular oven cooking.

See the Cookware Tips section for information on suggested cookware.
